Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but isn’t it pretty common to e.g. have a list of non-duplicate items on screen which have a specific order they’re supposed to be displayed in which can be changed as a result of user actions (like adding new items or editing existing ones)?

Maybe? Perhaps that's just a part of my daily dev that is lacking. I generally work on the backend and not the frontend. I could envision how keeping stuff in the same order on a UX would be important.

Doesn't seem like it'd be the general case though. And it seems like it'd be fairly obvious when something like this applies.
